Shinjuku gyoen park



One of the most popular places in Tokyo to view the cherry blossoms is in (of all places) Shinjuku. This park costs a couple of hundred yen to get in (about one pound), but it is one of the best bargains you'll find in the whole city. The lawns are immaculate, there is oodles of space, and the landscaping could not be better.

These were taken on my mobile phone, not far from Yoga station, then enhanced on i-photo.

Issy is the model. The mushroom is on Dartmoor. I have done a whole series of pictures like this one, illustrating the famous story, but this is all you're getting. Unless I get a deluge of requests, of course.
